I fully agree mate. There is something about him. He is one of those very rare people who get into your head and you like them from the very first moment you see them.

I'd be surprised if this hasn't been posted in here already but its been a long day in filling these pages up and some might've missed it . He speaks fluent English , is warm and friendly , readily likeable , doesn't shrug away from a question and you can tell he's not ducking behind a wall as a personality . Starts speaking English at 15 : 00 and goes on for another 15 minutes , speaking about his time at Chelsea and the fact that he still talks to staff and players and likes life in London , as his family does as well .

One notable difference between Villas-Boas & Mourinho will probably be his interviews and conferences.. I bet Justin will be happy about that

Don't see why the fees for Football Directors (Frank Arnesen, Guus Hiddink) are accounted, might as well include all the board members and the backroom staff.
